(National-UAE) Austria launched an initiative on Wednesday to identify and register social and educational institutions that are the targets of Islamist-controlled organisations for political purposes.
The new approach will involve an audit of groups through the country’s Documentation Centre for Political Islam, which will serve as a resource for integration policy and the security agencies.
Minister for Integration Susanne Raab said that the goal was to end parallel social structures that promoted patriarchal and separatist communities.
The government of Chancellor Sebastian Kurz, which is a coalition of the centre-right and Green Party, has adopted an integration policy based on transparency to fend off attacks from the far right.
